Numanthia, Toro (Spain) 2002

Deep red/purple.

Vinturi - grilled meat/toasted oak/toasted nut/baked earth/baked egg confection nose.

Deep and intense, with celery seed character leading. Abrasive, though, with structure shutting down the whole deal. Huge front teeth-coating tannin. I actually enjoyed this a few years ago.
